Homemade Chicken Nuggets
Ingredients for about 24 nuggets:
Author: MOMables
Cuisine: Lunch
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground chicken
- ¼ cup old-fashioned oats
- ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided
- 1 tsp Zatarain's Creole Seasoning, divided (optional) sub paprika
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- ¾ cup breadcrumbs
Instructions
- In large bowl, combine chicken, oatmeal, half the grated parmesan (1/8 cup), half the Zatarain's seasoning (or paprika) (1/2 tsp), garlic powder and pepper. Knead dry ingredients into ground chicken.
- Moisten hands to prevent sticking and form 1 tbsp of chicken mixture into a ball. Press into a cookie cutter for shaped nuggets or flatten with fingers for a basic nugget shape.
- In small bowl, combine breadcrumbs with remaining Zatarain's seasoning and grated parmesan.
- Press nuggets into bread crumb mixture and turn over, patting crumbs into surface to coat evenly.
- --At this point you can freeze-- or
- To bake: Preheat oven to 375° F. Arrange nuggets on cookie sheet sprayed with cooking spray or lined with parchment paper. Lightly spray nuggets themselves with cooking spray or olive oil for a crispier coating (optional). Bake 15-20 minutes, turning once, and checking - don't overcook! These baked nuggets will not really brown (unless you pan fry in oil) - if browning is desired, place under broiler for a couple of minutes at the end of cooking.
I used Steak Spice instead of the Zatarain and that works well.
I also fried them instead of baking them and the first batch is slightly overcooked.
VERDICT
Nazrin : "Mmmmm Yummy!!"
-nuff said-
NO MORE BOUGHT NUGGETS from now on.
